f**k

Gagai with the teflon hands today. 'Coz nothing sticks'.

 

[aqua_duck]

Someone wipe the WD40 off Gag’s hands please

 

[Alex28]

What a shame.

We stop the mistakes - we win this. They need our errors to score points. We can carve them up regardless.

 

[NoSchitSherlock]

We can score if we have possession in their end. I reckon they will get tired.

 

[Walk On Home Boy]

Gagai... killing us

 

[Jono078]

This is not good.

 

[slotmachine]

Gagai pass to Dom and he scores easily

 

[Tom155]

Jesus nothing working for us today

 

[perverse]

The wheels have come off completely. This was always possible.

 

[aqua_duck]

Raiders can’t crack our line so we’ve decided to gift them a few tries

 

[K-Man]

We haven't really aimed up physically for a finals match, it's disappointing. Raiders have brought a predictable siege mentality and we haven't responded. Costly errors and penalties too. It's now officially concerning.

 

[Walk On Home Boy]

Days like this are why I couldn't believe we signed Gagai again. He's known for this crap...

 

[Woody90]

That’s terrible. Don’t deserve to play finals like this.

Gagai our most experienced player having a shocker.

The disappointing thing is everyone knew this was coming. Like, it was so incredibly obvious this was coming - and we still look shocked by it.

This was always my concern and I said so earlier in the week. We play fantastic attacking football but we haven’t really been in a forward grind on our run and our style isn’t suited to finals.

 

[aqua_duck]

We need to start playing some football from our own half because the raiders are just physically manhandling us

 

[Jono078]

We badly need half-time.

 

[Tom155]

Hold the ball!

 

[perverse]

This really is the Knights from the first half of the year, not the second half. We're back to regular programming lol.
